going back to Lofoten in August. I was planning the hike to Munkebu from where the Munken was the goal the following morning. However Veinestinden might provide better views. Could you compare the two? Could we set up camp with nice views close to the top os V.st.? Thanks a Lot!

The view is better and the best part of it is that there are very few people going up Veinestinden while they are tons of people going up tu munkan.

You will find many places to set up your camp close to the summit of Veinestinden.

Last thing you should know climbing up to Veinestinden is a littel harder then going to Munkan.

Is it possible to continue to scramble clockwise from Munken to Veinestinden to Navaren to Reinebringen and make a loop? Looking at panoramas from Munkan it seems straightforward to get to Veinestinden, then a steep scramble to Navaren but then it's a nice gradual descent, back south towards Reinebringen from there. I can't find a photo of the rest of the panorama to the right of what's in this photo though:

Do you happen to have photos of the route? If it's not possible, or it's simply too dangerous, where is the crux that prevents doing the traverse? Thanks
